Chapter 153 The Old Lady Under House Arrest

Huo Zhirou who was sitting in the carriage froze when he heard Qiu Qianling's words, and nervously looked outside through the heavy curtain.

An evil look flashed across Yuan Bohan's eyes, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was even brighter, "What? Mr. Qiu can't search Yuanmen, so he wants to search my carriage? Want to see if there is a princess hiding in my carriage? No! It should be It's an assassin!"

When Qiu Qianling heard Yuan Bohan's words, he laughed a few times, and then said, "I don't mean that, I'm just curious."

"Curiosity will kill the cat, but since Mr. Qiu wants to see it, I will show it to Mr. Yuan. However, Mr. Yuan's carriage has not been searched yet, and Mr. Yuan is the first one!" Yuan Bohan finished speaking. , turned around and prepared to lift the curtain of the carriage.

When Qiu Qianling heard Yuan Bohan's words, his heart skipped a beat. Although Yuan Bohan finished speaking with a smile, he felt bursts of cold air coming from the soles of his feet, In an instant, his whole body was icy cold. Seeing that Yuan Bohan was about to lift the curtain of the car, he hurriedly stopped him and said, "Master Yuan, no need! How could there be assassins in your carriage! I must hurry to see the old lady." , Say goodbye first!"

Yuan Bohan frowned when he heard Qiu Qianling's words, "Master Qiu, don't you want to watch it? What a pity!"

"I don't want to read it!" After Qiu Qianling finished speaking, he said to the vowel: "Girl, hurry up and lead the way, I have something to do!"

A smile flashed across Yuan Yin's eyes, and soon disappeared. He stretched out his hand and said to Qiu Qianling, "Lord Qiu, this way please!"

Qiu Qianling rubbed the soles of his feet with oil, and quickly entered the Yuan Gate, as if there were poisonous snakes and ferocious beasts behind him.

Huo Zhirou in the carriage felt Qiu Qianling's departure and completely relaxed, only to realize that her whole body was completely weak at this moment, and cold sweat broke out on her back. It was too thrilling just now!

When Yuan Bohan waited for Qiu Qianling to disappear in front of his eyes, he immediately got into the carriage, looked at Huo Zhirou who was pale with fright on the carriage, he smiled helplessly, stepped forward to hug her in his arms, and said to her: "Coward, what are you afraid of? Even if Qiu Qianling really wants to get into the carriage, I have plenty of ways to make him shut up!"

Hearing Yuan Bohan laughing at her, Huo Zhirou pouted slightly, and said complainingly: "I'm not as courageous as you, of course I was frightened."

When Yuan Bohan heard Huo Zhirou say that she was timid, he suddenly laughed in a low voice, his chest heaved up and down, he scratched the tip of her nose lovingly with his fingers, and said: "You are timid? I think you are very courageous! I think you rejected me solemnly when we first met!"

Hearing Yuan Bohan's joke, Huo Zhirou also remembered the scene when they met on the lake. At that time, she was reborn not long ago, so naturally she didn't have any thoughts on other places, she just wanted to keep the Huo family, and now only half a year has passed At that time, she was already nestled in this man's arms, who would have thought of this at that time?
Yuan Bohan looked at the warm smile on the corner of Huo Zhirou's mouth, lowered his head and pecked her sweet lips lightly, and said to her: "Rou'er, don't worry, give your life to me, I won't I failed you."

When Huo Zhirou heard Yuan Bohan's promise, the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened, he beat his chest lightly with his hand, and said to him: "Don't make trouble! You are still in the carriage!"

Yuan Bohan dissatisfied and left the place that made him reluctant to leave, looked at her complainingly, and then asked: "Does that mean I can make trouble after getting off the carriage?"

What returned to Yuan Bohan was Huo Zhirou's big white eyes. This hateful guy actually misinterpreted her words!

Yuan Yin brought Qiu Qianling to Yuan Yin's yard. Along the way, Qiu Qianling felt the eyes of Yuanmen's eyes sweeping across his body with the knife in his hands. tense.

Thinking that his majestic Jiangnan governor would be afraid of these juniors from Yuanmen, he would be laughed at if he said it out, but only he could understand how terrifying the people from Yuanmen were, and the guards under him were not the guards of Yuanmen at all. Opponent, don't mention him as a powerless scholar!

There were two maids standing at the gate of the Yuanyin courtyard. Seeing Yuanyin, both of them bowed to her and called out politely: "Miss Yuanyin!"

Yuan Yin nodded, and said in a faint voice: "The master asked me to bring Mr. Qiu to see the old lady."

One of the maids nodded, and then said: "Lord Qiu, please come in, and this servant will inform the old lady." After speaking, she entered the gate of the courtyard.

Qiu Qianling squinted his eyes and looked at the departing maid. His footsteps were strong and powerful. It can be seen that the maid guarding the door is very skilled. It is not as simple as the simple maid. Are these two maids from the Yuan family or the princess? ?
The person who is the princess is better to say, if it is the person who is headed by Yuan, doesn't that mean that the princess is under house arrest here?

Yuan Yin watched Qiu Qianling scrutinize the departing maid, with a cold light in his eyes, and said in a faint voice: "Lord Qiu, let's go to the hall first and wait for the old lady."

"Okay!" Qiu Qianling nodded, following the vowel sound, he came to the hall where the courtyard entertained guests.

De Ling was standing on the pavilion in the yard, holding a pair of delicate scissors in his hand and trimming the potted plants in front of him, with a relaxed expression on his face, it seemed that he was not annoyed by being imprisoned here, standing beside four maidservants, all of them Silently waiting beside Deling.

"Old lady!" The maid guarding the far door went up to the attic, came to Deling's side, saluted her, and said, "Miss Yuanyin brought Mr. Qiu over."

De Ling heard the maid's words, and the scissors in her hand cut off a small branch with a click, and then she frowned, looking at the potted plant in front of her, she accidentally cut it in the wrong place, and it became a failure. Now the potted plant in front of her It's really ugly to become nondescript.

"Take it down and throw it away!" De Ling put down the scissors in his hand and ordered in a faint voice.

Hearing Deling's order, one of the maids came up and took the potted plants away.And another maid came forward with a basin in her hand to clean Deling's hands.

"Let them wait!" De Ling said to the maid, then turned and went down the attic.

De Ling changed his clothes and came to the hall. At this time, Qiu Qianling had already drunk half a cup of tea. When he saw De Ling walking into the hall, he immediately put down the tea cup in his hand, got up and saluted De Ling respectfully. He said: "The next official pays homage to the old lady."

"Lord Qiu, please stand up!" De Ling sat on the main seat, and the maid brought tea.

After bowing to De Ling, the vowel said: "Old lady, Mr. Qiu wants to see you. The head of the family asked the servant to bring him over. The servant has something to do, so I will leave first!"

De Ling looked at Yuan Yin with a half-smile, and asked with concern, "How is Han'er doing recently?"

Yuan Yin's heart sank when she heard De Ling's words that seemed to be concerned but contained deep meaning, but she still replied: "Old lady, please don't worry, the boss is doing well recently!"

"Then I'm relieved!" Deling nodded with a smile, "Go down if you have something to do, Yuanyin!"

"Slaves leave!" Yuan Yin exited the hall.

After the vowel left, the smile on Deyin's face disappeared, and he said to the maid in the hall: "You all stand down!"

"Yes!" The maid in the hall quickly left the hall with neat steps.

"Lord Qiu, what's the matter with you coming to see me?" De Ling asked Qiu Qianling directly without talking nonsense.

Qiu Qianling heard De Ling's question, stood up, and respectfully said to De Ling: "Princess, please save the princess!"

"Xue'er? What happened to Xue'er? Wasn't she escorted back to the capital? Did something happen on the way?" De Ling had a shocked expression on his face when he heard Qiu Qianling's words.

"The old lady doesn't know? The princess was hijacked by assassins shortly after she left Hangzhou City. The guards who escorted Princess Xue and the maids who had been serving the princess all survived. The officials have been sending people in Hangzhou for these years. I searched for the princess inside and outside the city, but found nothing!" Qiu Qianling said to Deyin with a distressed expression on his face.

Hearing Qiu Qianling's words, Deyin's face sank, he held the teacup tightly with his hands, his chest heaved up and down because of anger, he threw the teacup to the ground, and said through gritted teeth: "Okay! Very good! He is really good with you!" I was right to the end!"

Seeing that De Ling was so angry, Qiu Qianling immediately knelt down in fright, "Princess, calm down!"

De Ling looked straight at Qiu Qianling in front of him with sharp eyes, and then asked: "The capital already knows about this?"

"Back to the princess, His Majesty already knew about it, and sent someone to announce the decree, telling the lower officials to arrest the princess. Today, the lower officials wanted to lead people to search the Yuanmen Gate, but they were blocked at the door, so they could only ask to see you, Princess! "Qiu Qianling said to De Ling with a helpless expression on his face.

Hearing Qiu Qianling's words, De Ling smiled sarcastically, and said, "You are smart enough to send someone to search Yuanmen!"

Qiu Qianling heard De Ling's misunderstanding. After all, De Ling was still the old lady of Yuanmen, Yuan Dehan's mother, and quickly explained: "Princess, there is nothing you can do about it. I searched for several times, but found nothing, and the guards sent by His Majesty said that the Yuanmen Gate had not been searched, so the officials would bring people here!"

When De Ling heard Qiu Qianling's explanation, she sneered, she really thought highly of this guy just now!It turned out that he didn't have this idea, which made her so disappointed!

"Go back, now I don't even have the right to go out of the yard, how can I help you?" De Ling put away the sarcasm on his face, and said with a soft sigh.

Qiu Qianling's eyes widened when he heard De Ling's words, and he said in horror, "Grand...Princess, you...you are under house arrest? He...how dare he?"

Qiu Qianling was startled and angry, how could De Ling be his biological mother, imprisoning his biological mother in the yard is really unfilial and treasonous!
"Is there anything he can't do? Hmph! I really raised a white-eyed wolf! You're back!" Deling picked up the teacup and saw off the guests.

Qiu Qianling looked at De Ling's movements and wanted to persuade him, but seeing De Ling looking down at the teacup in his hand, he didn't want to look at him, so he sighed helplessly and said respectfully: "Your Majesty Retire, princess, please take care, no matter what, if you have any difficulties, princess, remember to send someone to inform the next officer."

Responding to Qiu Qianling was De Ling's silence, and Qiu Qianling had no choice but to leave the hall.

De Ling raised his head and put the teacup in his hand on the coffee table. This son was really cruel enough to change all the maidservants she trusted around her, and her people from Yuanmen were also taken away, and she was placed under house arrest. Before she could let go of her anger, she also arrested Si Rongxue.

Ha ha!

De Ling smiled coldly in his heart, the blood of the Northern Wing royal family is all cruel people, so what if his surname is Yuan?It can't be changed that half of his body is also the blood of the North Wing royal family. Sooner or later, he will understand this truth!
"Come on!" Deling shouted to the outside.

The maid waiting outside heard Deling's words and stepped into the hall quickly, "Old lady!"

"Go and ask the master to come over!" Deling said lightly.

"Yes!" The servant girl retreated respectfully after hearing Deling's words.
